Has anyone tried skolelinux 1.0? I am dling now.  It looks lighter than 
k12ltsp, which could be useful. The idea of a light core with add-on 
modules appeals to me. Any look at freeduc for this sort of thing? I am 
not suggesting any is better, but that there are a few ways to look at 
an educational thin client/linux  environment.
Re the hardware issues..... I had failing hardware on my initial install 
of fc1, on my upgrade to fc2 on my personal box, an nforce2. Non-k12ltsp 
fedora provided me with these issues...and my by now boring disl.ike of 
fedora.
